Stripe builds financial infrastructure that ambitious companies use to launch their boldest products. Our customers range from hours-old startups to complex global businesses. Collectively, they are growing the GDP of the internet. You can help. So Ford can focus on building a global digital dealership , rather than processing payments. So Le Monde can expand its digital offering globally , not reinvent subscription billing.
So truckers can focus on getting supply chains moving , not invoicing paper trails. We take pride in freeing up others to work in the spotlight. The leaders in any field make their success look easy. You might think that Stripe has things figured out. Planning means sacrifice: we have great ambitions but limited resources over short time horizons. We are happy that we can support more than 50 payment methods and accelerate rollout of new ones , incorporate more than 20, startups , and galvanize responses to climate change.
We are constantly retooling to keep more than 8, Stripes productive, stay resilient to risks, and provide category-leading products at payment volumes higher on any given day than they used to be over an entire year. Every project exposes us to challenges that are beyond our current capabilities. Stripe is not a pay-your-dues culture; we will train you quickly and then give you substantial responsibility. We often have surprisingly small teams accomplish strikingly important work. We have to be able to build things quickly to support the fastest growing startups and platforms in the world, while also being reliable, trustworthy, and sometimes profoundly boring.
We need to get projects done today, while building infrastructure that the internet will rely upon for decades. We also need to balance an intense work environment against the need to support fulfilling and sustainable careers. Stripe is a team, not a place. We have two headquarters San Francisco and Dublin , but we belong to the internet. We speak more than 30 languages with our customers and even more with our families.
We aspire to make internet payments as ubiquitous and effortless as email. We want to share cabs with them in Singapore and buy food together in the darshinis of Bangalore. We are grappling with the challenges of operating at an organizational scale that few tech companies reach. We care about our culture and want to preserve the important parts while evolving to meet the needs of new Stripes and our changing business context.
